A girl observes and appreciates the pleasures of winter, like catching snowflakes on her tongue, building a snowman, making a snow angel and anticipating how much snow will fall. The illustrations are made from cut paper and paint that add to the crispness of the season. It's Winter describes all the elements of winter and even has glimpses of animals in the background that are hibernating. Cross sections are shown with animals underground and under water. There is a list of winter science activities to make the book complete.
